Might be easier to get a new car? :p

No, it's fine. But it was involved in a pretty serious accent so I bought one when I bought a load of other bits. The new one has done 30k the old one has done 60k. So whilst I'm doing the clutch I'll do the gearbox at the same time.

get a TorSen in there!?

A TorSen? :eek: sounds illegal.

Next to me I have EBC Ultimax fronts and EBC Sports rears along with EBC Greenstuffs pads. All waiting to go on.
